I’m posting this page a little early since I’ll be flying during the usual update time. I suppose you don’t mind the page being a little early. Not much going on here, I know, but I wanted to show a bit of Nina/Filip and it seemed to be the best moment in this chapter. So look forward to few pages of them waking up and basically being a couple. Apart from that – it’s your last chance to vote for your favorite magical girl! Stefen is winning but Adam is close behind him! Seriously, I thought Robert would get more votes… The poor boy is crying for sure (╥﹏╥)You don’t have to pay to vote! Patreon wants you to register but you should be able to give it whatever email and vote without problem.

And I got engaged yesterday! By surprise! (‘∀’●)♡ I guess he got tired of the job-hunt… No, I’m joking, job-hunt is progressing nicely but it turned out that there’ll be at least two more rounds before the process is over so my husband-to-be is still fighting. As you can imagine I had a great weekend and tomorrow I fly away to Poland to wrestle with the embassy for my beautiful 5 years long working visa \(-ㅂ-)/ ♥ ♥ ♥

Congrats fo getting engaged 🙂 – So this will be your shining beacon in the middle of all this job hunt chaos – I am happy for you two and hope that he will also find something quick in short time – crossing my fingers.

And also crossing my fingers that not only your flight back to poland wil be uneventfull but also you get your visa without any hassle.

That Robert is loosing is on one hand sad, but somehow i think he is used to it – he should stop beeing something that he isnt, start waring black leather and become the badass demon hunter he is – he could be for demons what Blade is for vampires, he just should try it 😉

And for the page: Its not just a page with nudes – its a page with tastefull nudity, a very big difference 😉 – But its great seeing more of these two (and i am just going from the next page already XD ) – and i still cant get over the books – he is so addicted to reading 😉

No. I’m probably too lazy to actually compete. I mean, I could probably find time if I really wanted, but on the other hand all that anime isn’t going to watch itself. Maybe if I ever strike it rich and don’t have to work, but there’s so many other side-projects I’m postponing till then I’d probably still wouldn’t find time for Kaggle.

Man, if they had been sleeping naked that time the demon woke them up and chased them around camp, that comic would have been even funnier.

Personally, I wouldn’t be caught dead sleeping naked with demons roaming around, no matter how attractive a girlfriend I had to snuggle up to. But I guess they feel safe enough in the knowledge Ada’s barrier is protecting them and they won’t have to flee without a moment notice and nothing but the lack of clothes on their back.

Also, did anyone else think Filip looked a bit like a Victorian gentleman with a rather disheveled, but still impressive, moustache in that second-to-last panel? Or do I just make ridiculous associations?

Also, as my last attempt failed, how exactly do we get the patron tags to work? I’m using the username and e-mail I have with Patreon, but it doesn’t seem to be working like that. Is there a special URL I need to put into the Website section?

Normally you just put in the email adress (which has to be the same as on Patreon) – maybe something went wrong with the system in the back or it takes some time to recognize (i know NI said she has to add it that the badge will appear. I would just wait until NI has some free time and can look into it, and i know she will do it the moment she sees you post 🙂

Is this Flip and Nina or Ada and Rob? I kinda got the impression until now that Ada and Rob are just friends, but in this page I honestly can’t tell who’s who.
By the way, I have a friend with curly red hair named Ada so this comic cracks me up all the time. She’s much more mildly tempered tho.

“and develop their characters, their relationship” – this is why she gives us “First Steps” 😉
And do you really believe these two could “fall in love” in the cliche way – no way – Rob ist to focused on other things and Ada would never say something in this regard in the open (at least i just cant imagine these two would say it out loud) XD

No, of course, their relationship is not “standard”, but this feeling close (or in love) without showing it much and not saying they are, in my opinion, is not that unusual either in storytelling. This reminds me of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

But even though they might secretly be in love, or rather because thy are, if my current assumption that Julia will catch Roberts eye is true, there will be jealousy, sadness and hopefully making up (making out totally optional graphically, but I expect a kiss at some point).

You know I wrote plenty of stories so far (they are dusting in the drawer, like Replay was) but never wrote any romance plots. So Replay is kind of an experiment in that regard… I’m not a romantic person, my own relationship history is plain weird to other people, my only knowledge about how it usually works comes from shojo mangas and anime hahaha~! Look forward to some weird romance side-plots and backstories in this comic xD

He timed it like this because he already felt bad about chickening out for 6 months!!! He didn’t even think that my parents (and his parents) will be showering me with questions and such xD And I have no friends here, just family (friends left for other cities). He’s a meanie!!!! xD

And no worries, I’m far from turning it into a romance story, I really want the main plot to advance steadily. Glad you enjoy the mix!

Zooming in on the books to see which books Filip was able to save.
Oh, that’s a condom. Good they have some, I guess. But I first thought it was a scarf or something – and knowing what Filip had been reading earlier that day 😉

Thank you! \(-ㅂ-)/ ♥ ♥ ♥
And yes, I have submitted the documents yesterday without any problems, got home and now I’ve got a week before I need to go back to Japan. I think my start date will be moved again, this time to let me start early since everything is going smoothly xD

To be fair:
This image was just to distracting to hover the mouse over it – we never expected to see something like this 😉
So it was a good plan to use this text for this page – just to see how we get distracted….wait a minut, NI you are not pulling another social experiment here, do you XD

I’m sure it has been a long time, and I don’t know if it worked out between you too, but if you are still together congrats on 2.5 years.
Also, you know that this page is what probably describes life for @ReplayComics right now.
